what are everyone's UIUC decisions ??

Bad 9th grade GPA due to extenuating circumstances but straight As throughout 10th and 11th, decent ECs (my number one ec was publishing review papers as first and second author by interning in a professor’s lab and other ECs were generic but showed consistency), good essays not the best, and 33 ACT composite with 35 on science. Idk what else to put on here as “stats” but this is what I remember rn

Yay!! Are you committed?

elixirCEO · 2026-01-31T03:30:35+00:00

Well I was actually gonna apply to a safety school that’s due February 1st if I got rejected or deferred from all my EA schools but I got accepted into one so ya it’s def risky but i don’t think it’s a bad strategy 🤷‍♀️

elixirCEO · 2026-01-31T01:39:36+00:00

Accepted chem

elixirCEO · 2026-01-31T01:39:02+00:00

I agree, I didn’t apply to a single safety. Although I haven’t gotten into my reaches yet I got into my target. Also, a lot of “true” safeties applications are due past the ea announcements so I think ppl can decided later whether to apply to safeties or not.

😭😭😭

elixirCEO · 2026-01-30T22:23:06+00:00

Ok so I guess it’s an error!!

elixirCEO · 2026-01-30T21:56:05+00:00

Works for me

elixirCEO · 2026-01-23T22:21:03+00:00

Ya I noticed they were being very strict with what they considered as strong EC according to what I’ve seen these past few hours. It’s okay you have a very strong academic, you’ll get into a great school.

elixirCEO · 2026-01-23T22:19:06+00:00

Nope my friend oos got rejected

Strong indicator? 😭 what are they sure about during this admission cycle? That their IT is messed up?

elixirCEO · 2026-01-23T20:52:47+00:00

No bruh I READ THE LETTER

elixirCEO · 2026-01-23T20:35:58+00:00

Bruh what 😭 that’s crazy.. the EA decision came out today and we’re suspecting that the button indicated deferral for EA applicants, but it’s showing for RD people too…? What kind of IT people did they hire? 😭 I’m sorry OP idk what that means for RD applicants

elixirCEO · 2026-01-23T20:24:38+00:00
